Chapter 2299 Craving Candy

“You’re welcome. I’m glad that they came to the right place. These two kids were running around in the street

hailing a cab. I wanted to send them to the police station, but they said they contacted you a long time ago. That’s

why I brought them here...”

The driver touched his head and felt a little embarrassed.

Clayton’s face softened. He quickly took out $500 from his wallet and handed it over.

“Thankyou very much.”

The driver glanced at it and handed back three $100 bills. “It’s not that much. $200 is enough.”

He stuffed the money into his pocket shyly, nodded, and walked out.

Clayton nodded.

After the driver left, Clayton took a deep look at Chatty and Fischer.

Fischer stood there obediently and knew he was in trouble.

However, Chatty was unaware and happily hugged Clayton.

Her eyes curved into little crescents.

“Daddy, don’t you think we’re smart?”

Clayton was silent for a moment. He squatted down and hugged Chatty.

“You shouldn’t do this again.”

He looked at Fischer and said seriously, “Have you thought about the consequences if the driver was a bad

person?”

Fischer pursed his lips. “Mommy wouldn’t let us skip school anymore after we ran out last time, but Chatty wants to

come and see you...”

Clayton was stunned and pursed his lips tightly.

He had mixed feelings as he looked at them helplessly.

“Don’t do this again. Fischer, if you can’t take good care of Chatty, I’ll get Levi to take care of her next time.”

Clayton could tell that Fischer could not resist Chatty’s unreasonable demands. The boy did not even have any

opinions on what Chatty wanted to do.

Thus, it would be bad to go on like this.

Fischer suddenly raised his head.

“Okay, Daddy. I won’t let this happen again.”

Chatty pouted her lips in displeasure.

“But I miss you so much that I don’t want to go to school...”

Clayton’s heart softened, but he still insisted on saying, “You can call Daddy after school or on weekends. You can’t

just come here whenever you want because Mommy doesn’t know that you’re here. If no one knows where you

are, they’ll be worried about you. Do you want Mommy to cry because she’s worried?” 1

Chatty shook her head silently.

Fischer said from the side, “But Daddy, why don’t you go home? Mommy is always crying at home. I saw her cry

last night! ”

Clayton was shocked to hear this.

Chatty blinked in confusion.

“Why didn’t I know this?”

“You were sleeping...”

Fischer sighed and looked at Clayton.

“I really don’t understand. You went out on a business trip for so long. Did you fight with Mommy? You always told

me that boys shouldn’t fight with girls, and we should compromise. Did you forget that?”

Fischer’s words stunned Clayton. His gaze suddenly became complicated.

His heart tightened. He pursed his lips, stood up, and looked elsewhere in a panic.

“Well, since you guys are already here... Chatty, you should call Mommy first so that she doesn’t get worried!”

As he spoke, he leaned on a cane, carried Chatty, and walked forward.

Fischer said in surprise, “Daddy, what’s wrong with your leg?”

Clayton froze for a moment.

“I accidentally fell. Fischer, are you hungry? You can tell the chef what you want to eat. They’ll cook for you.”

Fischer shook his head and followed him.

“I’m not hungry.”

Chatty said softly, “Daddy, I’m hungry. I want candy...”

“No, you’re not hungry.”

Clayton touched her head and interrupted her thoughts.

After Chatty called Nicole, she smiled and asked for praise.

Clayton helplessly pinched her little face.

“Chatty, you’re so smart!”

Fischer was speechless.

Stanton Corporation.

Nicole hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and tried to restrain her emotions. However, her heart clenched

after she heard that name.

She clutched her chest to relieve her pain, and her face was distorted for a while.

Suddenly, the phone rang again.

It was from the school.

Nicole took a deep breath, pulled herself together, and picked up the call.

“Hello?”

“I’m sorry to bother you, Ms. Stanton. Liliana and Fischer ran away from P.E. class just now. We’re searching the

school now....”

“I know. They’re safe now. It’s okay.”

Nicole did not have such a strong reaction as she did last time.

After reassuring the school, Nicole hung up the phone and was not in a hurry to pick the kids up.

There was a knock on the door outside the office.

“President, Ms. Nixon is here.”

Logan moved to the side, and Julie walked over with a smile.

“Rich biatch, will you buy me lunch?”

Nicole looked at her and raised her eyebrows. She could not help but smile.

“Aren’t you very busy? Why are you here today?”

Julie sighed and walked over.

“I was supposed to meet someone for work around here, but they stood me up. So, I came here.”

Nicole rubbed her hair and said with a smile, “Okay. What do you want to eat?”

“I haven’t eaten French cuisine in a long time. I heard from your employees that you’ve been eating French food

recently. I want to try it too!”

Nicole was slightly startled and looked a little stiff.

Julie knew her well and saw that Nicole’s expression was not right. She squinted and said, “What happened? Can’t I

eat there?”

Nicole’s gaze was complex as she said, “Sure you can...”

Julie smiled. “Let’s go, then. Kai said that you’ve been so busy with the company’s affairs recently that you have no

time to eat properly. So, he asked me to bring you out for lunch because he doesn’t want to sub in for you when

you fall sick!”

Nicole could not help but shake her head with a smile.

Kai was really smart.

Nicole drove.

Julie smiled, looked at her, and said, “So, did you make any progress on what you told me last time?”

Nicole’s eyes flickered slightly. She smiled stiffly and replied, “No.”

“You didn’t go to him?”

Nicole took a deep breath. “I don’t know what to say, and I don’t know where to start. I don’t know what to do to

make the situation better.” 1

Julie’s smile gradually faded as she watched Nicole silently for a few seconds.

“What are you going to do if the stalemate continues?”

“At least he came back alive. That’s something to be happy about. I shouldn’t expect too much.”

Julie was stunned by Nicole’s indifferent words.

She frowned and looked at Nicole with some surprise.

“Those used to belong to you. Do you want to watch as another woman steals your happiness?”

Nicole restrained her smile and pursed her lips.

“No one can steal him unless he wants to be with her. You know that I can’t bring myself to fight with another

woman over a man. I’d hate to become like that.”

Nicole looked ahead, and her heart was as cold as ice.

Back when Nicole was married to Eric, Wendy Quade, who was a third party in their relationship, had exhausted her

energy and patience.

Nicole hated those days when she had to compete with other women for a man. 1

She did not want to repeat history. She did not want to lose herself and crush her soul and dignity.

If Clayton was deliberating between her and another woman, Nicole would never force him to change his mind. 1

There was no need to maintain a marriage without love
